so, I have a headache, one of those I want to poke my eyes out with an ice pik headaches........I know that this is an early warning sign that tomorrow morning I am going to wake up sick.


I was thinking about that... I mean what if I am not going to wake up sick tomorrow, what if I am psyching myself into being sick because of my supposed warning sign?

what if I never had to be sick, and I was making myself sick?

what if I ruined all my previous relationships because I saw "red flags" and started acting different and doomed them because of my own paranoia?

anywho.........what do you guys think in general about your perceptions of things and how they flavor your actions? does thinking something about a situation color the situation to make it true?

I was going to go check on my kids and I did check my CO detector and it looks okay, but I didn't even think about other environmental concerns.....

It's a proven fact that one can lie to oneself and fool oneself into a wide variety of predicaments that they do not really exist in. For instance, I believed for quite a while that I had seasonal disorder, and thus I was allowing myself to continue to be emotionally immature during the winter. Took me a while to face up to that.

So it's certainly possible you will fool yourself into being sick tomorrow. But the way I see it, why not just force yourself to work anyway? If all else fails, take some Advil Cold and Sinus and deal wif it.

I will, I was just wondering, what if I didn't have to be sick at all?

Have you ever thought that it could be the lack of sleep? Your eyes are likely exhausted beyond their normal use, so as a result, you're getting the headache (assuming that it's a real headache)

As for me, I rarely get headaches on random reasons...but I have noticed a high rate of headaches in relation to serious weather changes. Much in the same way that old people say "My bones are achin'...a storm's a'comin'!" I get headaches before the storms/weather changes are noticed, despite the clear blue sky that may be there...Sure enough, within a few hours, something happens.

I also never watch the weather channel...

Odd, I know, but it happens.
